Sucker Punch Productions has released a new patch, version 1.101, for its popular action-adventure game, Ghost of Yotei. This update aims to improve the quality of life after the recent launch of the New Game Plus (NG+) mode. The patch is small but addresses several rare problems that players faced while revisiting the journey of Atsu. This quick approach shows that the development team is focused on enhancing the post-story content for its loyal players. The game has already received multiple awards for its success.
The main focus of the 1.101 patch notes is on fixes related to the game’s higher difficulty and replay options. Sucker Punch fixed an odd visual bug where the counter for the popular Bamboo Strike locations showed negative numbers on the map screen in New Game Plus. Additionally, the patch includes important fixes for the New Game Plus Vendor, making it easier to exchange new items. The developers also resolved a few instances where missions could freeze, which is important for keeping the flow during extended playthroughs.
In addition to the New Game Plus features, the update includes a vital fix for completionists. A rare issue that stopped players from getting the Platinum Armor Dye—a cosmetic reward for achieving the game’s Platinum Trophy—has been fixed. This bug affected players who completed the game’s tasks across multiple save files, causing frustration for the most dedicated fans. The 1.101 patch also brings general improvements to performance and stability by fixing various rare, game-crashing issues reported since the last major update.
The quick release of this patch highlights the studio’s commitment to supporting the game after its launch. Ghost of Yotei has been both a critical and commercial hit since its release on October 2, selling over two million units in just a few days. Looking forward, Sucker Punch has confirmed that more content is coming for Ghost of Yotei, including the free, cooperative Legends mode—a beloved spiritual successor to the feature found in Ghost of Tsushima—set to launch sometime in 2026.
